M E E T I N G :   L e   L o n g   W e e k e n d

1) Saturday: Calais - Honfleur, passing the 'Pont de Normandie'
On our way to Honfleur (France), where we would meet Maxime and Jerome, we had a few stops... so we could stay together without a problem. From the start on, we could enjoy the weather.... so hundred of kilometres top down driving.

The first real stop was at Honfleur, a beautifull small city with a charming harbor, where the time had stand still for several centuries

2) Saturday: The Hotel Montgomery at Pontorson
with a reserved 'car park'

3) Sunday: visiting Becherel for a few minutes
Becherel is well-known for its bookshops

3) Sunday: Rennes
Maxime guided us through the ancient part of the city

4) Sunday: Vitre

5) Monday: Mont St. Michel
Although the day started very cloudy and a bit chilly, it all cleared up in the afternoon.

6) Monday: Cancale
Another very charming place... don't forget to visit one of the 'Reastaurant - degustation'-places or just buy some "huitres" and eat them at the site of the road/water.

7) Tuesday: Bayeux with the well-known Tapestry
The first day with rain.... :-(
